New Fiat Palio and Uno to exist alongside current models

The new Fiat Palio and the Fiat Uno will coexist with the existing Fiats, reports Noticiasautomotivas. Remember that the Uno was launched back in 1984 and when the new Palio comes in the next few years, the Uno would have completed 30 years of its life with very little changes to its looks.

In India, Fiat’s isn’t letting go of the Palio as its entry level model. Next year the Palio will receive a facelift to keep abreast with competitors going into the next decade. Structural modifications and a modified steering wheel to make way for the compulsory airbag is planned in 2014.

Spied yet again – 2010 Fiat Uno

The Fiat Uno’s successor illustrated and spied on previous occasions (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 times), is placed right under our spotlight once again.

Small cars make up the bulk of sales in India, this one looks and feels like an able challenger to the WagonR and Estilo with its simple, low cost styling- two reasons why Fiat should bring this to India, and two good ones.

Of all small cars in the Fiat line-up, this would be the cheapest, positioned under the Panda and sold throughout Europe with safety features like Airbags as standard fitment. The 2010 Fiat Uno could use a sub-1000cc engine mated to a 5-speed transmission.

This 2010 Fiat Uno is the first of the many such small cars from all major automakers including Hyundai, Ford, Mitsubishi and Honda.
